There is more than one band named Killers. (This is not “The Killers”)
1.Killers is a Heavy metal band founded in 1992 by famous vocalist Paul Di’Anno (ex-Iron Maiden, Battlezone).Cliff Evans was living in New York with the manager of Fastway. Steve Hopgood, who played in Battlezone with Paul called him and said “Let’s get something together”. Paul was contacted and he flew over to New York where they formed a band.
Within a few days they had hired John Gallagher (from Raven) to play bass on a short-term basis and an American, Ray De Tone, on second guitar. Within a few days, a live album called “South American Assault Live” was recorded, featuring a number of Iron Maiden and Battlezone tracks and covers of “We Will Rock You” and “Smoke on the Water”. This was recorded primarily for the South American market, as a South American “money guy” was involved who was interested in backing a tour in the region[3]. “Recorded in Brazil, Argentina and Venezuela in Summer of 1993” is splashed on the back cover. However, according to John Gallagher, the entire album was played in a New York rehearsal hall and taped on a mobile recording truck [4]. Later, a Canada-based record company called Magnetic Air Productions was to issue a pirate release worldwide, under a different cover, with no royalties being paid to the band.
